You can do this by ear with negative eq. I almost never boost frequencies when I mix. I just make sure everything isn’t competing. Once everything wasn’t overlapping, everything sounded clear and the vocals cut through the chatter.

This wasn’t possible without being able to select the mid frequency. You can go even more surgical with a fully parametric eq that some of the digits desks have. (QSC TouchMix, etc)

It’s nice to have mid seeeps because when you need them, you really need them!

So this wouldn't be possible with just the bass, treble, mids EQs on my SA220. I guess the next best thing would be to cut the mids on the vocals and hope the highs and lows come through more to cut through the chatter?
